Parents Accidentally Leaves 11-Year-Old Daughter at Croatian Rest Area After 200 km Drive
A Croatian parents accidentally left their 11-year-old daughter at a highway rest area after driving 200 kilometers.
On August 2, a Croatian highway rest area became the scene of a surprising incident involving a family who accidentally left their 11-year-old daughter behind. The incident happened at the Rascane rest stop, situated in southern Croatia, after the family had driven 200 kilometers from their previous stop.
The situation began to change when the child’s mother called the rest area in a state of panic. She reported that her daughter was missing.
Thankfully, the police responded quickly and located the girl, who was unharmed but understandably frightened and in tears. The police were able to reassure the child until her family arrived several hours later.
The parents explained that they were part of a larger group traveling in multiple vehicles. They had assumed their daughter was in one of the other cars, which led to the distressing realization that she had been left behind.
Fortunately, the situation was resolved without any legal repercussions.
The recent incident mirrors a similar case in France, where a family accidentally left their 3-year-old daughter at a highway rest stop for over two hours. In that case, another family noticed the child alone and promptly alerted the authorities.
The French family only realized their error after driving 90 miles and hearing about it on the radio.
